Female Community Chorus

Based in Cincinnati, OH

The Forest-Aires Women's Chorus was founded in 1962 by Sylvia Gilchrist. She gathered Forest Hills PTA moms to rehearse and perform popular choral music for the sheer joy of singing. Over the years, women from the Greater Cincinnati area have joined the group. In a short time after its founding, the chorus was able to raise money from performances to donate to the music program in the Forest Hills Schools. After donating funds for equipment, the chorus was then able to raise enough money to start The Forest-Aires' Scholarship Program to fund voice lessons for high school students. That program is still in existence and The Forest-Aires has awarded voice scholarships to more than 342 high school students, and another six students will be chosen this fall.

Founded - 1962.   A Cappella.
